Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The epidemiology of tuberculosis in Taiwan has been influenced by the introduction of multiple Mycobacterium tuberculosis lineages and by the ageing of the population. We conducted a population-based study to investigate M tuberculosis transmission in Kaohsiung, a city in southern Taiwan. METHODS: In this study, we performed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of M tuberculosis isolates from all...
